All of Wisconsin’s state parks are open after last month's flooding.

Wildcat Mountain State Park near Ontario in western Wisconsin is back open after being closed for almost a month after 13 inches of rain fell in about two days.

Park Manager Ron Campbell says being closed cost the park about $30,000 each weekend.

Access to some trails and other services at some southern Wisconsin parks is restricted as the Department of Natural Resources continues the clean up.
